The caveats
StoreInspect. Nobody is named. There is no company, no founder and no location, and a support address is the whole contact page. That is a lot of trust to give a vendor selling you 1.4 million merchants' contact details. Treat the contact side as your own compliance question. The site says the data is public. That is not the same as saying an outreach campaign built on it is lawful where you or the merchant are. The store counts are self-reported, and the refresh cadence is described as regular without a number. So how current any single record is cannot be checked from outside.
Winning Hunter. The store side is what you would pay for, and it is the least documented part. The app filter is a substring match on app names. There is no published count of apps it recognizes, or of how often a store is rescanned. The revenue figures are estimates with no method attached. Everything else is priced for ad research you will not use. The 500k+ users and 5M+ stores are its own figures. There is a free trial that takes no card. So the app filter can be tested against a competitor whose installs you already know before paying.
